Twas the day before Christmasπ and the Clippendale’s staff were all hard at work but often stopping to laugh ππ€£
They were zooming and grooming and playing with dogs… With the hustle and bustle they were hopping like frogs
Their beautiful facility was glowing and bright. A wonderful beacon on a warm Christmas night πβπ
Their hearts were all full bubbling over with joy because they had the Christmas spirit – each girl and each boy!
Their customers as always were as joyful as they. They brought all their dogs with energy to play.
there’s lights in the shop and lights on the tree but the brightest light of all is the blessings they’ll see ππ
For unto this day the rescues all came – Tammy knows all of us and she calls us by name. They formed a small army, both customers and staff to bring happiness and joy and give us a laugh ππππ€£
The bright angel πtree with its many tags was now filled overflowing with boxes and bags! πππ
Sweet gifts for the crittersπππ of each rescue agency in not one of the tags was shown any complacency
Gifts had been purchased with love and with care. Knowing the rescue workers would soon be there .. there’s kibble and toys catnip and litter one can hardly see through all the packages and glitter β¨β¨
The community stands for their tired rescue friends giving and helping their generosity knows no ends π₯Ήππ©΅
And up here at Haven, the pack, pride and herd are eagerly sitting and waiting for word
Secure in the house or out in their stalls they’re about to receive the greatest gift of them all
To be remembered at Christmas when abused for so long fills all of our hearts with a joyful Christmas song πΆπΆ
We thank every Angel, every worker and Tammy (who is an amazing woman and an incredible Grammy) Danielle and Kevin with their generous hearts hesitate not for a moment to do more than their parts
We love our community, our neighbors and friends and are humbled and honored again and again by the generous hearts and the great thoughtful presents as we load up our trucks π»π»and head back to our residents
In the season of hope when we’re tired and weary all of this kind generosity makes Pack Momma quite teary π₯Ήπ
When people come together to do what they can, it seems all things are possible and part of God’s plan!! ππ

We love you all and pray Christmas blessings for the holiday and all year round … may 2026 show you the kindness you have shown us π₯Ή special thanks to Clippendales & Tammy Stratton … Love y’all!!
